Configuring Simple Network Management Protocol
on Security Appliance
The snmp-server command causes Security Appliance to send SNMP traps so that the
Security Appliance can be monitored remotely. Use the snmp-server host command to specify
which systems receive the SNMP traps. Example 4-5 shows a SNMP sample configuration
on a PIX Firewall.
The location and contact commands identify where the host is and who administers it. The
community command specifies the password in use at the PIX Firewall SNMP agent and the
SNMP management station for verifying network access between the two systems.
